Photoshop Skills - Bruno Mars Album Work

Taking on board my Photoshop skills and development throughout which I have shown in my blog, I have decided to create my own version of the Bruno Mars unorthodox album cover. I have taken inspiration from the original Unorthodox album and both album covers have similar aspects in regards to the colour and the graphological layout. However my album takes a different approach to the demographic being young people as I have placed an image of the main artist being promoted himself onto my version of the album cover so that the demographic can clearly see what artists the album is based upon.

Using the software I have been able to manipulate and change certain features of the image by adjusting the contract, brightness, colour levels etc. I have also been able to insert and modify the style of the text so that it is suited to the chosen style and genre of the album being indie/pop. Below I have inserted a few images to show my progression throughout creating my own version of the album cover whilst using the software of Photoshop. Foreshadowing this album cover and creating a similar media product will help me and strive me to create a similar product in regards to a successful album cover when it comes to promoting my own virtual music video.
